"Shanghai Story," directed by Andrej Iliev, is an evocative journey through the vibrant and chaotic streets of modern Shanghai. Starring Emilie Ohana and Drago Lazetich, the film explores the unexpected bond between a troubled product copywriter and a mysterious woman.
This is a small indie film, so don't expect sweeping drone shots or big set pieces. That being said, the film is shot beautifully, showcasing quite a bit of Shanghai, both during the day and at night with its neon lights and rich vibrant colors.
The chemistry between the two leads is solid, and the rapport between them is enjoyable. The script had me chuckling a few times, although the film struggles at times with pacing and occasionally falls into predictable tropes.
Despite its flaws, strong performances and a visually rich setting make "Shanghai Story" a compelling watch for those interested in character-driven narratives. It has a calming and nostalgic feel to it and reminding me of the beauty in everyday connections. Recommended.
